Considering satan knows his doom and destiny ( in hell, the lake of fire FOREVER) Do u think if he had a second chance that he would do things differently, so that he could stay in heaven? Just a curious question- I would believe he wouldn't if he were smart, but more than likely he Would do it again. What do u think????

Now I want you to OPEN YOUR MIND and imagine that there is no heaven.
OK, you think heaven exists because (insert bible verse here). But discard that for a minute.

Would you feel that you wasted your life worshiping to get into an afterlife that doesn't exist?

That I have hardend my heart against god. That I really do believe that god is "real" and I know in my heart he is. If I don't believe it's to hell I go. Really?
How have I hardened my heart against god? Why has none of the other pieces of my heart been hardened? Not my love for family and friends. Not the wonder I feel when I look at the night sky and the beuaty around us? I do not feel in my heart that god is real. I have thought about it. wouldn't it be great if it was true? Someone that will always forgive you and love you, who wouldn't want that, and yet, I do not have that belief. Should I lie and say I do? Just so christians can feel better in their faith, that they are right? Just to go along with everybody else? But wouldn't that be a lie? And it being a lie, if there was a god, he would know. I wonder how big a sin is lying to god about believing him is? So, the only thing I could do is "to thy own heart be true"

You found out that the REAL reason we are trying to democratize Iraq is not for the surface reasons like oil or power that people say...but to penetrate the "1040 Window"..which is a longitude/latitude coordinate portion of the world that has been entirely NON-Christian for centuries and this is an attempt to export the GOSPEL into that region? The Muslims are fighting for their spiritual beliefs...and though no one would dare breath it in America...the powers that be are doing it to export Christian beliefs over there in order to bring about the events of Revelation. ***The first days after Iraq was toppled, networks like TBN were asking for donations to send satellites in there so these people could hear the gospel...not watch American Idol. The muslims are fighting our attack on their belief system, not just their women's burcas.

...and Im a DIEHARD Christian by the way. Using the Military to spread religion is what Man DOES.

All they have done through history is kill each other and Non believers. They all seem to take money from the poor and give nothing in return apart from taking more for the churches upkeep. So why are they tolerated in modern society?

Its one thing for them to hate me, because I think their religion is absurd and I comment on it alot.

But what would motivate them to openly slander each other?

By the way, I know I'm generalizing. But just bear with me and answer the question.

Perhaps Christians see no difference between a gay person, a Hindu who worships idols, a pedophile and a goat rapist but let's get REAL here!

An idol worshiper or gay person does not harm me, my family or wider society. A child molester is OBVIOUSLY dangerous. A kid cannot consent to sex as it is not emotionally mature enough to understand the ramifcations of such an action. It is proven to be harmful for the child and is rape.

As for an animal....well EW! There couldn't possibly be any mutual emotional connection involved. An animal cannot possibly understand what the hell is happenening or why even if their body is physically responsive to the act. It is animal cruelty AND rape!

You can make love to a consenting adult human but you will never be able to make love to an animal, or child it will always be one-sided and thus ethically WRONG.

Am I the only one who sees a VAST difference between a relationship between two gay adults and the other two?

Personal world views are a set of individual claims that formulate reality (more than one truth).

God , in my opinion, is Truth. Only His views are objective, defining reality and truth. All other views are based subjectively to a person's view which can create many truths.

Why do so many Americans want creationism taught in public schools. Do they not believe in the separation of church and state anymore. I am not bashing Christianity I just think religion and science should be kept separate and religion has no place in public schools. And please do not respond to this question with, "But the Bible says creationism is real." So I am curious, why is it so many people support a violation of separation of church and state?

Statistics: http://archives.cnn.com/2000/US/03/08/creationism.vs.evolution/

"A CNN-USA Today-Gallup poll found that 68 percent of those surveyed favored teaching creationism along with evolution in public schools; 40 percent favored dropping evolution altogether and teaching children only the biblical version of creation."

If the Catholic church makes nuns and Priests give up their belongings to live like Jesus did, than why doesn't the Pope have to do the same thing. Can anyone live a more luxurious life than the Pope? Don't Catholics see the hypocrisy of this. They guy wears $500 shoes for christ sake!!

I am a server or helper for the priests in both rites of the tradtional latin mass and of the novo ordo mass.
The Novo Ordo 's priests sees too many laity having a hard time following all the rules and norms of the mass.
The priests of the traditiona latin mass have made no complaint on any person because the norms and rules of the traditional latin mass are easy to follows.
Its better to obey as you would obey Jesus the Christ.
Its optional to attend either rites as long it fully with the Holy See.
Each Priest of either rite can finshed the masses in 20 to 30 mintues even on Sundays
